• How food intolerance is different from food allergy?

           Food allergy is a symptom that occurs immediately after exposure to an allergen while food intolerance occurs after eating the same type of food repeatedly until the body's immune system recognizes that the food is foreign. Symptoms appear differently for each person, and the symptoms will not show immediately. This usually occurs several days after eating the food you are allergic to, making it difficult to notice and impossible to identify the type of food that you are allergic to.

• How does IgG4 Food Intolerance affect health?

           Food intolerance varies, and it is chronic but not severe. However, if you continue to consume the allergen, it will result in chronic problems, weak immune system, including negative effects on health, such as:

o Chronic headaches, migraines;
o ADHD;
o Chronic stuffy nose and runny nose, frequent colds;
o Chronic hives of unknown cause
